Ft Worth teen shot dead while robbing house

[We Are Legion]

I dunno if anyone else has heard about this, but it's a pretty huge trending story right now, especially in my home town. This chick is basically from a really rich area outside of Dallas/Ft Worth and there are so many bleeding hearts for this girl right now. I'm just going to assume this wouldn't be the case if she wasn't caucasian and lived in the area she lived. Even the local news is beating around the bush, but this article is from the British press.

Claudia Hidic: Aspiring actress, 17, mysteriously found dead outside house last month 'was robbing the home and shot dead by crossfire from her partners in crime' | Mail Online

A photo posted by one of slain student-turned-alleged robber Claudia Hidic shows a different side to the 17-year-old who was shot in the head during an attempted home burglary.While her parents and relatives maintain that Claudia was a sweet aspiring actress, one of her friends posted a photo to a Facebook memorial page showing her flashing a rude gesture while wads of dollar bills are shown stuffed down her gym shorts and bra.Her body was found dumped by the kicked-in back door of a duplex apartment in Fort Worth, Texas almost two weeks ago and now police have the two men thought to be her accomplices in the attempted burglary.Curtis Fortenberry and Terrance Crumley, both 21-years-old, now face felony murder charges over the fatal incident.

Mystery: 17-year-old Claudia Hidic was found shot dead in the backyard of a stranger's home

According to the Star-Telegram, Hidic reportedly directed the two men to various homes where they could find expensive items to steal.
At the home where she met her death, there were thought to be five or six people inside the duplex at the time that Hidic and her two co-conspirators entered.
Either Fortenberry or Crumley had a gun on them, and once they entered the apartment, shots were exchanged with people inside the home, and Hidic is thought to have been hit in the crossfire.

Miss Hidic's distressed family said they had no idea what happened to the teenager, described by her sister Samira as ‘big-hearted and beautiful’.Former foster parents Jim and Sue Scionka told the local TV station that she dreamed of going to college and becoming an actress. They asked that anyone with information come forward.‘If your heart is touching you,’ said Mr Scionka, ‘if you know anything about this situation I pray (you) would contact the authorities.’A neighbor said he heard a loud bang at around the time of the shooting, which he described as being like something backfiring. ‘I don’t instantly think about a gunshot when I hear a bang like that,’ he said. ‘Not in this neighbourhood.’Grieving friends started a Facebook page, dedicated to Hidic.
On it was posted: ‘Claudia was truly an amazing person she will forever and always have a piece of my heart.

What do you guys think about this?​

 

[~Fallen Angel~]

I don't wish death on anybody BUT I think it's messed up that people think she's a nice person when she is the one that guided those guys to steal. :/

I think its typical. Family says oh they would never do that. They are so bright, big hearted, sweet, smart, good, they would never do anything like that. Then someone finds a scapegoat either one of the two guys "talked her into it" or movies, tv, or something influenced her. But posting that pic of the money. in her shorts and stuff... that was cold. The girl still died so that wasn't necessary.

But... I dunno... it just looks like... a big ole mess to sort through.

I have no sympathy, call me a terrible person if you wish. Sad that a young person died, but she chose that lifestyle and paid for it. She should have thought about this shit...

 

[Tapout]

I don't think she should be getting the positive reaction that she is. She was doing something she wasn't supposed to, and paid the ultimate price. Yes, it's sad for the people who knew her, but ultimately, it was her doing.

 

[Rated R Superstar]

I don't agree with the people trolling the Facebook pages however. Sure, she kind of had it coming, but let those that loved her grieve. I have at least that much respect not to do that kind of shit.

 

[Heisenberg]

Sad that a young life was taken and I feel sorry for the family but yeah, what was said above is basically what I think as well. Wouldn't of happened if she hadn't chosen that lifestyle.

A mother of one of her friends posted about her on the "Justice For Claudia" page and apparently she had been on drugs for a while and speculated she was breaking into houses to fund her habit. It all makes sense now
